Meg Foster steps into the Jeepers Creepers 3 role vacated by Barbeau

Last month, it was revealed that Adrienne Barbeau had joined the cast of JEEPERS CREEPERS 3... and just eight days later, Barbeau announced that she would not be in the movie after all.

Given that the sequel was already filming when Barbeau dropped out, she had to be replaced very quickly. Ten days later, we now know who is taking over the role of Gaylen Brandon, whose son Kenny was killed by the monstrous Creeper. As I said when Barbeau left, she would be a tough act to follow. How do you replace genre icon? The answer is, by casting another genre icon.

A JEEPERS CREEPERS 3 crew member has been posting behind-the-scenes images on her Instagram account, and captured in one of these images was Meg Foster, the icy-eyed actress who has appeared in such films as THEY LIVE, LEVIATHAN, STEPFATHER II, THE LORDS OF SALEM, 31, and many more. She has 120 film and TV acting credits to her name, and that's not yet counting JEEPERS CREEPERS 3.

In the comments, the crew member confirmed that Foster has taken over the role Barbeau vacated. Well, if ever there was a person to wonder "Where did you get those eyes?" about, Foster would certainly be the one.
